    Hi there

    I'm trying to listen to radio streams in XP, I have this radio stream - http://icecast.playlouder.com:8000/totalrock.m3u working in vista but I can't seem to get it working in XP.

    It plays but there is no sound, in both winamp, or WM9 or the totalrock player from their webpage.

    I can listen to the BBC radio streams though and the shoutcast streams work in winamp.

    Please could someone advise me on what the problem is as I would like to get my XP system working the same as my Vista system is currently.

    Thanks in advance for any help/advice, it's most aprreciated :)

    Heh me being a dumbass this week - I forgot I might need a codec that's in the k-lite codec pack...

    So I installed the K-Lite codec pack, still didn't work but then I restarted my laptop and now it works...

    Please lock this thread.

    Thanks :)
